They need help at D-line and get a nice big guy who will help the D-line. Some Eagles fans wanted him because he was big and thought he could be our run-stuffer, but he is more of a pass rushing DT, so I never really though the Eagles would go for him, but good signing nonetheless.

Very good signing for the Browns. They seem to be concentrating on building in the trenches which will help them out in the long run imo. I like Smith as a 3-4 DE and he could really help their defense.

Why doesnt Robaire Smith play NT? He seems to be the right size to play it at 6'4'', 330. I guess they are bringing in Shaun Smith to play the spot so maybe its a moot point though.

He's been listed at lighter weight, and I believe came into the league as a 4-3 DE. He gets pushed around too much to be a NT. I was disapointed in his play this year, and thought he was very average this year. But he may be an upgrade over whoever the Brownies have.

Solid signing by the Browns. I'm assuming that they are going to move him to DE since his performance in Houston as a NT left a good deal to be desired. The Browns are adding players at the positions that they need help at, which is very commendable. He should produce for them and is an improvement over the players along their defensive front.

He never really played NT for us, he was a DE while Seth Payne and Jerry Deloach played the nose in the 3-4.

I know this contributes nothing to the topic but it is a comment about your sig. You know the reason for respectibility and swagger that NORML had was reduced greately in the 1980's when a news reporter was at one of their parties and saw a noticeable amount of their leadership snorting cocaine? That's why the impact that NORML had now is hardly felt and effort to legalize marijuana is mostly just optimistic speculation.

The Cleveland Browns have officially signed restricted free-agent DT Shaun Smith (Bengals) to a four-year deal. Official financial terms were not disclosed, but the contract is believed to be worth $8 million.
